Woah, that was so so good! Hey, i’m on a running streak, i need my calories!

Yikes, am i dreaming? Wait a second, that is Michael Phelps daily menu! Yes, i am a runner but damn if i will eat all that in a day! I dream about it, sure but thats as far as i take it!

So, today was day 18. 5 miles in 52.45. I was really trying to run it in 52 min but i just couldn’t. I do have in my possession a brand spankin new garmin 405 yet to be opened. I’m very excited about trying it out. Soon!

So, check this out. Freaky!! Now what do you guys think? Is this just a bull-shit story or the real deal? I am not happy to read about a fellow runner that just runs to get away from his family! Running is so much more than that IMHO! This upsets me. I really shouldn’t let things like this get to me, but it just reinforces the notion that most people are not so nice. Now notice i said most not all….

So, tomorrow night is Mr Neil Diamond concert. I am psyched. I read he comes out in black sequenced pants. How freakin cool is that? Black-sequenced-pants. Polyester i assume? I wonder if they wick away the sweat from his hmmm, crotch area????

you know you might do better with your running if you did NOT run every day especially if you are trying to lower your time. Your body needs time to recover and running every day is not a smart thing to do. You are never going to get faster unless you get the lactate out of your system by recovering. that is my 2 cents.

When I was competing in swimming I used to eat seven meals a day, so this doesn’t surprise me one bit! I remember watching a documentary on the great Soviet weightlifter Alexeiev (I may not have the spelling right), who trained in Siberia in the friggin’ outdoors, and his meny consisted of a 32 egg breakfast with two whole chickens for dinner, on top of a lot of filler. Oh, the humanity!!!

Hey, just read your comment, the Cow Harbor run is really great!! If you can try and do at least 1 of the training runs it will help you out on race day. Not sure if you drive, but the ride from BK to Northport should be about an hour/hour and a half. If you can take the train, take the LIRR out to Greenlawn, I can probably pick you up, or take you back after the run. – no worries!
